One of the most common ways to deliver energy to an item is with an [[:Category:Energy Cells|energy cell]]. For example, the {{favilink|laser pistol}}, {{favilink|hologram bracelet}}, and {{favilink|powered exoskeleton}} are all examples of items that require an [[:Category:Energy Cells|energy cell]] to function. | One of the most common ways to deliver energy to an item is with an [[:Category:Energy Cells|energy cell]].

Electrical energy users and storage | Electrical energy users and storage are always [[Properties#EMP Sensitive|EMP Sensitive]], unless [[Electromagnetically-shielded|electromagnetically shielded]]. | ||
===Liquid=== | |||
Electrical energy can sometimes be found being transmitted by electrical power grids such as those found in [[Grit Gate]], as well as inside and nearby [[Tomb of the Eaters|the Tomb of the Eaters]]. | |||
===Liquid-Fueled=== | |||
Some items are powered by liquid as fuel. One dram of the specified liquid corresponds to a certain amount of charge specified by the object. Energy cells that require [[:Category:Liquid Fueled Energy Cells|liquid]] are also considered electrical energy because the liquid is used for the purpose of electricity generation. | Some items are powered by liquid as fuel.

The {{favilink|carcass kneader}} uses a hand crank to charge itself. The player may choose to wind it up by interacting with it. | The {{favilink|carcass kneader}} uses a hand crank to charge itself. The player may choose to wind it up by interacting with it. | ||
=== Broadcast === | |||
Broadcast power is available on the surface, from satellites (this sometimes being interrupted by atmospheric and orbital phenomena), and from the broadcast power station inside [[Grit Gate]]. [[Radio-powered]] energy cells, [[Rodanis Y]], [[Traipsing mortar|traipsing mortars]], and [[Regeneration tank|regeneration tanks]] can receive broadcast power. | |||
=== Hydraulic === | |||
Energy is sometimes found being carried by hydraulic transmission systems. [[Grit Gate]] has one of these, in addition to its electrical power grid. | |||
=== Mechanical === | |||
Mechanical power transmission is also possible. The water wheel and mill in [[Joppa]] is an example of this. | |||
